Lies at Midnight

Earning Pride

     When I finally got to Diavolo's office, I knock on his door. "Come in" I walk in and smiled. "Hey" I said softly and his eyes light up when he sees me. "Are you here to make it up to me?" He asked teasingly reminding me of my own words. "No, I'm still planning something." I said as let my stuff fall to the floor next the couch. I then took off my shoes and go lay down on the couch. "Comfortable?" He asked amused. "Yes" I said smiling. "I'm glad" he said with his usual smile. I hummed and got even more comfortable and closed my eyes and after a few minutes I flat out fell asleep. I was having the best nap of my life until an alarm woke me up. I grumbled and reached for it as I became more aware that something was covering me like a blanket. I noticed it was a jacket but i didn't really question just keep looking for the annoying alarm. Once I finally grabbed, i realized it was my d.d.d. I turn it off and get up, reluctantly. "Well, good morning" Someone said and when I look over Diavolo and his servant were looking at me amused. "Good morning" I said while rubbing my face. "Did you sleep well?" Diavolo asked "yeah, I really did" I answer with a lazy smile. "Where you ever going to reveal your true eye color?" Diavolo asked which made me still. I look over a mirror and the servant, Barbatos, handed me one as if reading my mind. I look into it and I was meet not by the light brown eyes that I chose to disguise myself but electric striking blue. The color that has made people gawk at me and be terrified of me. Why? No idea, they just don't like different and my shade sure isn't your usual blue. I sigh and hand it back. "Your full of secrets, aren't you miss Sinclair?" Diavolo asked with a tone of authority. "You have no idea..." I said with a sad chuckle I then look at him in the eyes as he looks back at mine. Wonder glint in his while mine glint tiredness. I then look in my bag for a bottle of ink and a thin brush. Once I had it in hand, I grab my d.d.d and let it go. As it stays in the air, right in the spot I raised, I dip the brush in the ink and push my hair back. I then start drawing a spell under my eyes and once finished it starts to disappear and my eyes turn light brown again. "Hmm, a ancient spell. No wonder we didn't notice" Barbatos saids "your truly knowledgeable, who was your mentor" he asks and my mind drew blank. So I blink and try to look for an excuse to leave. "I have class" I said as stand and leave "your not leaving" Diavolo said as I touched the door glows with red sigils. I hum as i stared at the sigils "who was your mentor?" Diavolo asked this time "....a crazy old man that didn't know how to shut up" I said with a smile and then grab the knob and twisted it while saying the spell in reverse, breaking it. "See you tomorrow" I said smirking while I walk away.

Diavolo's POV

   Electric blue eyes, a shade I have never seen before. It was strikingly gorgeous, knocking the air of my lungs as she stared at my own eyes. So much power radiating from that stare. I look at my jacket that was now on the sofa and not on her anymore, I felt exited but not like usual more like a feeling I have never felt before. "...I like her" Barbatos said snapping me from my own thoughts. "I do too" I said laughing genuinely, I knew that spell wasn't going to stop her but I also wanted to see what she would do and to say I'm impressed is a bit weak to explain the feelings she has ingrained in me. "What can you tell me about her?" I ask Barbatos "Nothing, I can't go and see her past, it's interesting. Nothing that I have presence before" Barbatos said "Keep an eye on her" I said "very well, your highness" she said while bowing. He then proceeded to leave once I dismiss him. May Sinclair, who are you?

Lucifer's POV

To say that I hate that mortal, is absolutely weak, even despise isn't enough. So the only reason why I came here to where she summon all of us it's because Diavolo ordered me to come. "I want to apologize for my overreaction yesterday, so it's only fair I make it up to you on front of everyone that witnessed what happened" she tells me and I just raised an eye brow at her. "An eye for and eye, tooth for tooth, that's the demons way of life. I hit you, so I own you to hit me one time" she said and it surprised "do you wish too die mortal?" I asked her as I laughed for the first time ever in centuries but she didn't look away not even once, telling me she was dead serious. "And how do you promise to not hit me back once I do?" I asked amused "fair, chain me up" she said so casually while raising her arms. "May, what the fuck??!" Asmodeus exclaimed but she still don't look away. Her eyes were only on me. "Say you didn't mean it!! Your insane" Mammon said terrified but even then she didn't look away. Her attention was solely on me and me only. I then took her arms and bind her. "As you wish, don't hunt me after your death" I said amused and she smiled "I plan to see my mom after this" she said, her eyes unafraid as I tied her hands. I chuckled "may my father have mercy on your soul" but she only smiled "I'm damn in his eyes" she only said as she closed her eyes, waiting for me to hit her. "May, NO! Lucifer, don't do it" Mammon screamed as clenched my fist and hit her straight on her face but she didn't flinch or fell. She stood and took it, then looked at me straight in the eyes as her lower lip bleed "you pack a good punch" she said smiling I snort at her and unbind her. She then licked the blood on her lower lip and healed what i damaged. "Well I be damn, your still alive and standing" I said "you weren't trying to kill me" she just simply said and I laughed again, knowing that she was right. I then turned and go back into the house without rage but another feeling.

May's POV

Mammon ran to me the moment that Lucifer turned. "You are insane!!" He said as he hugged me tightly. I just giggled "are your brains scattered after that hit?!?" Asmodesus asked as he also hugs me "That was so stupid" Satan said but the glint on his eyes never left as he left. I hummed and hugged back the two demons that were suffocating me. Asmodeaud inspected my face a million times as Mammon tells me how crazy and stupid I am.

Mammons pov

Cold straight fear, that's all I felt as Diavolo hold me and Asmodeus back from interfering. "Let's have a spa day and watch movies" May said as if she just didn't survive being punch by the Lucifer. The most powerful demon after Diavolo. "May, sweetheart, are you sure your alright?" Asmodeus asked as she drags us to her room. "I'm ok, Lucifer wasn't trying to kill me" she simply said but we were still scared. I don't really say anything, I mean what the fuck was i supposed to say in this situation? I am completely lost. We get to her room and after doing a routine Asmo look better but I was still scared and in shock. "You know what you did was stupid, right?" I asked in a small voice as we are watching a movie. For a moment I thought she didn't hear me but then she smiles at me and leans into me. "Yeah, I know"she whispered but her smile didn't leave her lips. We didn't speak even as I snake my hands trough her arms and wrapped them around her waist....
